5 Sue64
These are exactly what I was looking for. They provide just the right amount of resistance in the water and dry very quickly afterwards. I received them very quickly after ordering online.

5 Elaine
Exactly what I needed, arrived in five days in good condition. I am very pleased with my purchase.

5 jazmom
these are great for a good pool work out. they are a bit `` heavy ''( more floatation) but you can use slower movements or keep them more shallow for less of resistance, and move them faster or push them further under water( or do both actions at the same time) for more resistance. they seem to be holding up well so far but I have not had them for very long. hopefully they will continue to hold up in my 3 times a week hour long pool class at the gym.

5 Cyndy
I bought these for our home pool and they work great. They are comparable to what I use at the Y, so they were a terrific purchase at the sale price. Do n't hesitate to purchase, the quality is there.

Some of these bars are$ 700+ on various fitness websites, so i didn ’ t expect much at this price. The quality is much better than i expected. Completely satisfied with my purchase.

5 Jerry3344
This thing is solid and works excellent, pads are comfortable but still firm. I 'm surprised the handles are solid stainless steel, very high quality piece especially for the price. Well worth it if your looking into one of these types of barbells.

5 Aaron3377
Leaps and bounds ahead of the titan ssb. Had to return the titan it was just too uncomfortable and just felt off. This bar sits just right, my shoulders could tell the difference immediately. Far better quality and value. Well worth the price, do n't waste your money on the more expensive ones.

5 Aaron8899
Leaps and bounds better than the Titan at far better price. After trying the titan it was not that comfortable and just would n't sit right. Squats were always unstable. Decided to give the Ethos a try and glad I did. For the price, this thing is way better, padding was more comfortable, the handles are solid stainless steel, very high quality. Being rated for 1000lbs is overkill for me and probably most people. Do n't waste your money on the versions, very happy with this.

5 Thomas808
Been using for about 3 months, very comfortable and helps with my squats. I 'm able to do a little more weight and bang out more reps with this vs the straight bar. Definitely helps you focus on the core and legs and takes the burden off the upper back and shoulders. Highly recommend.

5 MikeT
Very happy with this purchase. Gives another choice for exercise variety with exercise bands.

5 Schopenhauer
Love this bar! I like the 36 '' length. It is more versatile than my much shorter X3 bar, which I paid$ 500 for. It's also short enough to work out in tight spaces and breaks apart to fit in a suit case. I use it with my tube bands and my pilates reformer. Using it with a door anchor opens a myriad of options beyond what is recommended in the accompanying brochure. I 'm able to hit all muscle groups. I feel great after working out with it.

It has a solid design with a comfortable handle and I would definitely recommend to anyone.

5 Flo
Using the Flexbar has really helped the `` golf elbow '' that I got from playing tennis. I just keep it near me when I 'm watching tv and use it constantly. I bought this one for my tennis partner.

5 sb
My PT had me use this in physical therapy. Put it on the floor, roll your stocking foot over it for 3 minutes. AMAZINGLY fast results. Increases blood flow to the area which in turn speeds recovery( normally the plantar fascia does not have terrific blood flow). I love this- using it daily to revitalize my now healed foot. It is the most important& relaxing part of my day.

5 Shemp1371
I saw this product in the store and thought it was a joke. So I tried it out in the store and liked it. I use this product about every day and it really does alleviate the pain in the forearms/elbow. I experience a lot of pain when weightlifting and this helps out so much.

I have had this barbell for 2+ months and use it 3- 5 times a week. I bought it to upgrade from the 300 lbs set I bought from Dick's over a year ago. Extremely happy with purchase knurling is great.

5 J1991
I 've been using this bar for several days now, and I have to say, it's a really great bar and is holding up to snatching/jerking overhead and dropping it just fine. The sleeves spin very nicely, the diameter( 28mm) is great for hook gripping with smaller hands like mine, and the knurling is differential. The knurling on the inner portion is less aggressive and gets very aggressive on the outer portion. This is a phenomenal bar, especially for the price. The only thing I would change is to add a center knurl.

5 bruskibomb

5 Hendersonlocal

5 Robman181
I bought this in March at the start of the pandemic and did n't expect much. I bought what I could get at the time. I wo n't say it's as good as higher end bars but it's less than half the price. I promise you wo n't find a better$ 150 bar anywhere. The diameter is IWF standard 28 mm, the weight is accurate and the knurling is satisfactory. The only place you might notice an advantage with some better bars is in the spin. Especially if you do Olympic lifts and the bar is fully rotating. I 've read some reviews that users have had rust issues, I have not in my basement. I 've loaded up to 505 on the bar and it has performed well. It is a bit stiff but I would rather an inexpensive bar be stiff than flex to much. Great value.

5 Captainmikeb
This is a very solid product. The software had a few issies but the recent update fkxed a counting issue. The product is quiet and i shut it off when i am not using it to conserve power. I have doem 3 worjouts a week for last to months. I love the consistancy of the resistance. I have been having echelon reach out and asked to share feedbsck which i requested music integration. Thought classes could be more fun with music, but honestly i play music on my radio( sonos) whwn i workout. Since i got the product there has been many skftware updates. I really like the added features and updated classes adding regulary.

5 Veronica A
The Echelon comes with a bunch of attachments, which is awesome. The straight bar, ankle straps, and different handles give tons of variety. BUT. Storing all this stuff is a pain. Had to buy a separate organizer. Also, switching between attachments mid- workout can be a hassle. Still, the versatility is worth the extra effort. Just be prepared for some accessory Tetris.

5 Peter P
Never done a lot of weight training, but this makes it all seem so easy with a great range of capability.

5 Bill M
I bought this along with the Duotread treadmill. I always wanted a smart strength machine, and this one is definitely worth it. I can do so much more with it. I was informed by Echelon that a new barbell is coming. That is great, cause i am not a fan of the one that came with it. I guess they heard feedback and decided to update it. The software gets updates almost every few weeks with cool new features. The product is very well made, and not a toy. It is a serious workout machine.

5 Jacqueline
This Echelon thing tries to do everything- strength, cardio, yoga, you name it. Surprisingly, it does most of it well. The strength stuff is solid, and the HIIT classes are no joke. Yoga's a bit weird on it, but doable. The 24 '' '' screen makes following along easy. Wish it had more storage for accessories though. My living room's starting to look like a gym equipment graveyard.

The Inspire Series FT2 PRO Smith Functional Trainer is an amazing home gym. It combines a Smith machine and functional trainer in one compact setup, giving you everything you need for a full- body workout.

5 jimbofromnewjersey
Shopped around for some farmer carry bars and what drew my attention to these besides the great price was the knurled grips that I did n't see most if not all of the others. I ordered them on a Friday and they were delivered on Wednesday. The packaging was in good shape and there were no flaws in the finish of the bars. The bars weighed in at 22. 2lbs each on my bathroom scale. There is 12 '' of sleeve length which will allow for plenty of weight. They came with 4 spring collars which is a good thing because standard spring collars are too big. But less than standard olympic sleeve diameter seems to be the norm with all these carry bars. I did find that my hex collars will also work on them, just not as tight as on an Olympic bar. I 'm very happy with the purchase and ca n't wait to try them out.

5 Rfg1
Good solid piece of equipment. Plenty of room to add plates. Not the nicest looking welds but that won ’ t effect the performance. Good price. I highly recommend these bars

Just got them and tried them out. Paint on collars is fragile, but I 'm not sure why the collars are painted anyway( main reason for 4 not 5 stars). They seem well built otherwise and held up to the 220# I had on each of them. They are well balanced and provided quite a workout. The knurling is pretty agressive, but similar to powerlifting bars. Chalk helped.
